Shooting this buffalo will be forever memorable. We used my father’s 30.-06 rifle. He fired it last 44 years ago (1964) on a deer hunt when I was 6 years old. He used a similar rifle, a M-1, in the Pacific in WWII. He passed away last summer. I placed 3 shots in the chest and my son, Steven, fired the last shot directly through the heart. He took this photo to school and I to work. We are going to do a shoulder mount and every time we see this trophy we will recall these memories and this time together. Tomorrow, I will pick up 500lbs of meat to share with friends and family. Buck Lively 3-8-08
